What is News-bemusu.cc ads?

News-bemusu.cc shows fake messages to mislead users into subscribing to push notifications

News-bemusu.ccNews-bemusu.cc is a malicious website you should not interact with

News-bemusu.cc ads might start showing up on all platforms – despite whether you are using Windows, macOS, Android, or another device. Many affected users were surprised by this phenomenon, as it seemingly came out of nowhere. This is not the case, however, as pop-ups can only be shown if push notifications from the website are allowed by users in the first place.

This happens after users access the site accidentally by clicking a booby-trapped link somewhere else. Upon entry, users are presented with a request to click the Allow button in the prompt, although the reasons given for this are completely different from their original purpose. Those who press the Allow button usually forget what happened quickly, and News-bemusu.cc push notifications do not start showing up until much later.

It is advised not to interact with links shown by the site, as they might lead to insecure places online. Likewise, delivered messages might be misleading and fake, claiming that users' systems are infected or that they have won an expensive gift.

If you have the News-bemusu.cc pop-up problem, you can take care of it easily by accessing web browser settings. Besides this, you should also check your system for adware,[1] as it could be one of the reasons you end up on malicious websites in the first place.

How does News-bemusu.cc operate?

The push notification feature is legitimate – many websites use it to deliver news and other relevant information directly to users' screens. Just like with anything else, it can be abused by crooks, and scammers were quick to realize that all they need to do is convince people to subscribe. Once they do, ads and sponsored content can be sent directly to users, which guarantees steady income via advertising.

In order to convince users to subscribe to push notifications, crooks simply portray the feature as something entirely different. For example, they might claim that a robot verification is required in order to proceed. Since many users have already come across verification methods such as captcha,[2] they can easily be mistaken here and click Allow. Other message examples you can expect to see:

  • Click Allow to start downloading
  • If you are 18+, click Allow
  • Press “Allow” to watch the video
  • Click “Allow” to win a prize and get it in our shop!

News-bemusu.cc virusMisleading messages might claim that you have won a gift to make you click the Allow button

News-bemusu.cc is just one of many websites that use this scam scheme, and there are plenty of identical websites which employ the same images and messages in order to convince people to subscribe – Freeadvhub.com, Notadsreviews.com, and Speedcaptcha-here.top are just a few examples of such behavior. Thus, whenever you see similar requests in the future, please ignore them because all these websites are fake and misleading.

How to prevent from getting adware

Access your website securely from any location

When you work on the domain, site, blog, or different project that requires constant management, content creation, or coding, you may need to connect to the server and content management service more often. The best solution for creating a tighter network could be a dedicated/fixed IP address.

If you make your IP address static and set to your device, you can connect to the CMS from any location and do not create any additional issues for the server or network manager that needs to monitor connections and activities. VPN software providers like Private Internet Access can help you with such settings and offer the option to control the online reputation and manage projects easily from any part of the world.

 

Recover files after data-affecting malware attacks

While much of the data can be accidentally deleted due to various reasons, malware is one of the main culprits that can cause loss of pictures, documents, videos, and other important files. More serious malware infections lead to significant data loss when your documents, system files, and images get encrypted. In particular, ransomware is is a type of malware that focuses on such functions, so your files become useless without an ability to access them.

Even though there is little to no possibility to recover after file-locking threats, some applications have features for data recovery in the system. In some cases, Data Recovery Pro can also help to recover at least some portion of your data after data-locking virus infection or general cyber infection.
